Analysis of Looking at your eyes



Looking at your eyes, I lost my heart.
I lost my heart when I fell in love with you.
But how long will I retain this love hidden from you?

Looking at your eyes, I lost my heart.
That day you find out,
You'll be so angry with me.
You'll shatter this heart of mine.
You'll shatter your own as well.
I didn't have any control over my heart;
Conversations with you worked like magic on me,
And this heart became yours.

Looking at your eyes, I lost my heart.
My heartbeat stumbled,
And dreams bloomed in my eyes.
This heart began to fall to you;
The chain of events was set in motion.
Sometimes one returns again,
Down the road of love.
